Choose Your Mounting Location
A good mounting location is important to getting the best performance out of your MR18 access point. Keep the
following in mind:
1. The device should have unobstructed line of sight to most coverage areas. For example, if installing in an office
filled with workspaces divided by mid-height cubicle walls, installing on the ceiling or high on a wall would be ideal.
2. Power over Ethernet supports a maximum cable length of 300 ft (100 m).
3. If being used in a mesh deployment, the MR18 should have line of sight to at least two other Meraki devices. For
more detailed instructions regarding access point location selection, reference the Meraki Network Design Guide
(meraki.cisco.com/library/).
Install the MR18
For most mounting scenarios, the MR18 mount cradle provides a quick, simple, and flexible means of mounting your
device. The installation should be done in two steps. First, install the mount cradle to your selected location. Then,
attach the MR18 to the mount cradle.
Attach the mount cradle
The MR18 mount cradle can be used to install your access point in a wide range of scenarios: wall or solid ceiling, below
a drop ceiling, on various electrical junction boxes, or above a drop ceiling (in the plenum).
The mount cradle contains a variety of hole patterns that are customized for each installation scenario. The mounting
template (included inbox with mount cradle) should be used to drill holes for wall mounts and also to identify the correct
hole patterns in the mount cradle that should be used for each type of mount. The included mount cradle template
shows the hole patterns that should be used for each type of mount.
Wall or Solid Ceiling Mount Using mount cradle
Using included wall anchors and screws, attach the mount cradle to your mounting wall or ceiling. It is recommended
that the MR18 be mounted to a wall or solid ceiling using the mount cradle for physical security reasons.
Drop ceiling mount using mount cradle
To mount your MR18 on a drop ceiling T-rail, use the included drop ceiling mounting accessory kit. The accessory kit
can be used to mount to most 9/16", 15/16" or 1 ½" T-rails. The kit contains:
• Drop ceiling mounting clips with set screws
